Abstract Text | To date, there is no actionable gene has been discovered in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Tumor cells with DNA damage response and repair (DDR) gene loss-of-function mutation is sensitivity to poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors and platinum chemotherapy in ovarian, prostate and pancreatic cancers. There is a case report demonstrated the efficacy of PARP inhibitor for BRCA2 mutation that belongs to DDR gene in HCC, which suggested the potential role of PARP inhibitor for HCC with DDR gene mutation.We reported a 44-year-old woman with non-viral HCC who was refractory to multiple treatment including target therapy, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy. The tumor tissue was submitted to next-generation sequencing using the commercially available ACTOnco®+ (ACT Genomics, Taiwan) assay that interrogates 440 and 31 cancer-related genes and fusion genes, respectively.A truncating mutation FANCA p.Q1307fs was also observed. The tumor was microsatellite stable and had low tumor mutational burden of 4.5 muts/Mb.Given FANCA belongs to DDR genes, the inactivation evoked the idea of using PARP inhibitor and cisplatin. Therefore, the patient started to use olaparib combined with low-dose cisplatin (30 mg/m2, every 4 weeks) therapy in December 2019. Significant reduction in the tumor marker level in 1 month (PIVKA-II from 17,395 to 411 ng/dL) and follow-up CT scan showed stable disease. Her tumor did not progress until December 2020 with a progression-free survival of 12 months.We report the first case of FANCA-mutated HCC that responded well to olaparib and low-dose cisplatin. This addressed the potential therapeutic role of DDR gene mutation in HCC and the possible synergistic effect of PARP inhibitor and cisplatin. These findings highlight areas where further investigation and effort are needed. |
